Comment 7 for bug 385723

Martin,

I've red the thread you mentioned, and I found out in it, that it should be fixed in xbacklight, but this could take quite a long time... and there is need of a fallback solution !

How many years do people experiencing that problem (on hp, samsung, sony, mac laptop...) are going to wait to have their laptop properly working ? Even Microsoft is shipping a new software, are tell the user they have to wait 2 years until another project close the gap...

I can understand that it is the right way, but how can we get a fallback solution for karmic ???
